Last but not Least- Sara's Teacher gift!

Sara's teacher's cards were the most challenging for me to do because I had only a few scraps and the paper while beautiful is not very colorful! I am really happy with the way they turned out though! I started with this sketch and varied it as I ran out of paper! I also added a little bling to brighten it up a little!

Can you tell I like the Bohemian Alphabet for Monograms!? Well, I do!

So 10 handmade cards in a handmade box! The paper is retired Simple Pleasures and I used Kraft paper for the box. I stamped the border around the lid with the Happy Journey (retired) stamp set and also the square in the center and I random stamped the base of the box! It is very simple but elegant looking and I was very pleased because I went a little outside my comfort zone!
